Oh my, where to even start with this update?! There has been a TON going on in my life, hence the radio silence over here.
For starters, my little brother got engaged a few weeks ago! So relieved I can finally spill the beans. It was in the works for soooo long and I’m thrilled it finally happened. I could not be happier with my soon-to-be sister in law! She’s the best.
It is FINALLY nice in Chicago. I was wearing a parka 2 weeks ago, and today I spent most of the day outside–I went to the Green City farmer’s market, and then laid out in my hammock with Taryn for a few hours. It was so refreshing to just lay out in the sun without a care. I mean, I have a TON to do this weekend, but I’m pushing eeeverything off until tomorrow when it’s supposed to be raining.
Idan and I leave for Paris/London in less than a week! I’m so freaking excited. I bought a bunch of clothes and accessories for the trip… more on that later.
